The jockstrap has come a long way since it was invented in 1874. Its original design was to protect bicycle jockeys while riding cobblestone streets. It rapidly found a home with numerous sports and medical applications that ranged from support to protection. Support was provided much like a bra, with a fabric pouch keeping a man's intimate area safely contained. Protection was provided with the addition of an optional cup that guarded against any potential impact. These were more commonly known as athletic jockstraps.
